The timeless sounds of 1920s and 1930s jazz are making a vibrant comeback in Ibiza Town, where a trio of local musicians is bringing the elegance, rhythm and improvisation of the genre’s golden era back to life. Every Thursday at 8:00 p.m., Ebusus Sociedad Cultural hosts an evening of live jazz music, offering audiences an authentic journey through the roots of modern jazz.
Featuring Iker Peñafiel on piano, Marc Ribas on clarinet and Álex Karlem on drums, the trio recreates the atmosphere of the legendary jazz clubs and dance halls that defined the early 20th century. Their performances celebrate the foundations of the genre through early swing, Dixieland jazz and a carefully selected repertoire of classic jazz standards.
Reviving the Golden Age of Jazz in Ibiza
Inspired by the pioneering sounds of the Roaring Twenties and the 1930s jazz movement, the musicians transport audiences to a period that shaped the future of jazz around the world. Their arrangements capture the spirit of the original ensembles, where every instrument played a distinct role while contributing to a dynamic musical conversation built on improvisation, rhythm and harmony.
The weekly performances are designed not only for dedicated jazz enthusiasts but also for visitors looking to discover one of Ibiza’s cultural experiences beyond its famous nightlife and beaches.
Classic Boleros Add a Romantic Touch
Alongside traditional jazz, the trio also performs a selection of classic boleros, blending the emotional richness of Latin American music with the expressive language of jazz. These elegant interpretations add warmth and sophistication to the evening while preserving the melodic essence that has made boleros enduring international classics.
The combination of vintage jazz, swing, Dixieland and Latin boleros creates a unique live performance that appeals to audiences of all ages.
